I would have a little fun with this question.

I would say.....

“The question should not be ‘do I own a gun’ but should be ‘would I ever feel compelled to use it disproportionately in a situation when I have access to it & whom is the adjudicator deciding the proportionality of the use in that given situation’”.

Doc couldn’t wait to see the back of me.

I've never been asked, I suspect I never will be. I have a fairly "stern" demeanor that doesn't invite that sort of thing, thank God.

I would have told them why their services were not welcome as well. At my clinic that is not asked

It's always a good time to ask them if they've ever been accused of malpractice... or sexual abuse. Then let them know that you're uncomfortable with the way they've touched you...

"Like a personal pepperbox or anti-aircraft recoil-less?"

I was stopped at the Canadastan border and the border guardette asked me if I "had any guns".
I said, "Sure. All kinds."
She said, "like what?"
"Pistols, rifles, shotguns, black powder.."
She says, "You'll have to open up the back." (I had a box on the back of my truck)
I opened it up and there was nothing in there.
"Where's the guns?"
"In Ohio in a cabinet."
Just messin with her.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 5461667


At BC border they asked if I had guns at home in Vegas. I lied.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 28286443


This right here. Knowing if I own a gun has nothing to do with diagnosing and treating a medical condition. Neither does my SS#, and I let them know that at the front desk when I check in. If I have to pay at the time of service, they have ZERO need for my SS# for billing or whatnot, since there will be no bill.

Don't be afraid to confront them on their bullshit, and Alpha the fuck out of them from the gate. Don't be too polite to say, "No" or "None of your business."
 Quoting: Paranoid Chick


I tried that years ago and the dumb cluck said it was policy and so I made up an ss number, then paid cash.

This is an example of a fib. Read my above post to understand the difference between a lie and a fib.

Couldn't agree more. It's none of my doctor's business if I have guns.
 Quoting: Revbo™


Could not agree more. Nor anyone else that asks.

I used to have a couple, but I was going target-practicing once, and I laid them on top of the car while I put in a small picnic lunch and something to drink. Forgot the weapons, got in the car, and pulled out of my driveway. A few miles up the road I suddenly remembered what a stupid thing I'd done. Went back and looked and looked and looked, but either they flew a long way off the roof or somebody coming along saw it happen and thought it was their birthday. Darned shame! Now I can't really afford to replace them, so I am out of luck.

People, be careful not to make foolish mistakes when in a hurry - it can be a permanent loss!

Lie and say you don't have any

I actually did that once at a hospital when they asked, said "no" lol

easy to do if its just you with no kids involved

if you have kids ... if you're worried about this it might be best just to not let them know you have a gun

in my case I don't have kids but I haven't told my family I have a gun ... I've had one for about 15 years now and nobody in my family knows at all
